But for this article, we will give you some simple ideas for soap bubble art:

Method 1: Mix paint with water and a bit of liquid soap used for washing up. Use a straw or similar device to dip into the solution and blow a lot of bubbles. Then take a piece of paper and place it on top of the bubbles gently to create an impression of the bubbles on to the paper and remove it and let it dry.

Method 2: You can mix the solution as usual with plenty of colors and soap solution and have kids blow the bubbles asking them to aim on a particular piece of paper. The bubble would burst and leave traces of color on the paper. But note, that this is a messy way to do it and needs to be planned out well. But when done well, the result would be a lot of splotches and dribbles that would make a nice work of art.

Method 3: This method uses a sponge dipped into the paint and soap mix after stirring it to create small bubbles. The soaked sponge, would be placed on a surface and then removed. A piece of paper would be placed on top of the soap and bubble residue on the surface to create a different version of soap bubble art. You can smudge the paper a bit to create interesting designs if that is what you want.
